I've once failed 3com card to work with NetBSD's wi driver, and I asked
tech-net@netbsd.org whether anyone can use it, but no response.
I suspect the 3com card works with 'an' driver since the
shape of the 3com card is very similar to aironet, IIRC.

	card     chipset   firmware   driver  shape
	-------------------------------------------
	Lucent   Lucent    Lucent(*)  wi      (same)
	(many)   PRISM-II  Lucent(*)  wi      (vary)
	Aironet  PRISM-II  Aironet    an      (same)

	(*)the firmware might be derived from other than Lucent.
